My 15 month old fell and split his forehead open while playing in the early morning. Nationwide Children’s did an excellent job at making him comfortable and doing a precise stitching job which will reduce his potential scarring. They comforted him with diluted juice and graham crackers afterwards. The wait was about 2 hours to be seen, which was less than we expected for emergency care. The staff was really friendly and warm. I appreciate having such a qualified facility nearby!

Took my baby there at 3AM, we stay there untill 7am and still no one call our name, when i askhow long it will take they said another 4 to 5 hours. If you got an emergency just take your baby to a different emergency room, because these guys don't care about your babies.Will never ever go back to this ER

We waited 7 and a half hours until my son was crying because he was so tired and frustrated. I went up to the desk to tell them that if we couldn't be seen soon then we were leaving. The lady just pointed to the front and said "Go up there and she will take you off the list". Rude and completely absurd. Definitely don't go to this place unless you ABSOLUTELY have to.

This "emergency" room will make you sit in deplorable conditions absolutely swimming with disease for hours on end. If you can go to any other hospital I highly suggest you do it even if this is the closest one. I guess maybe it'd be more comfortable to die here than on the street? But maybe just put a folding chair in your nearest gutter while you await the void's sweet embrace.

absolutely deplorable conditions. people packed into the waiting room like sardines with no masks. if you come here you'll wait all day long and leave sicker than when you arrived.

Horrible emergency room, horrible staff. Was at urgent care with my child prior for something else and he fell and bumped his head. Rushed him over to Nationwide and they brushed it off like he was sick. Was told to sit and wait. While waiting noticed his eyes were darting back and forth and then he fell again.. while in the waiting area; they didn’t even come and ask if he was okay, I had to go to them. Still took forever for a nurse to come and look at him. All the while I saw several nurses either talking to each other or on their phones… if you want to play on your phone, working in a hospital is not the job for you… wish I could give 0 stars. This place shouldn’t be called a hospital. Such a shame.

The worst hospital ever, we have been waiting in the emergency room lobby over 12 hours for my son’s breathing issues. Still wouldn’t be able to seen by a doctor.

I haven’t witnessed this first hand until the past two days. What an absolute nightmare this place is. Severely understaffed. Went in because my daughter had temps of over 101 and have oxygen levels around 93-94. Waited 5 hours last night only to leave early and we’re going on 4 hours already today and have only been called back for vitals. Asked for another vitals check to address the issues I stated above…still waiting for a second vitals check almost 40 minutes later. If you have an emergency, don’t come here because it won’t be addressed quickly unless you arrive on an ambulance (rightfully so). Pay the staff what they are worth so you can adequately staff the ER. Just hoping someone that has the power to make high level decisions reads this. Only giving 1 start because I have to in order to post.

If I could rate this place lower I would!!My preemie daughter is having apnea spells which means she stops breathing…. We have been waiting for 8+hours just to get her seen. She had an episode where her face turned pale and her lips turned blue and they still didn’t take her back.I am truly in shock..

I would rate this ER zero stars if I could. I have had incredible care within the hospital, but there is just no excuse for their ER wait times. I have been in the waiting room for more than five hours with my teen who has classic signs of appendicitis. They were told in triage not to eat or use the restroom, over four hours ago. I understand that ERs have to prioritize unstable patients and that there are only so many rooms, and I expected a wait time and not to be the first one seen- but 5 hours (in pain, potentially needing emergency surgery) with no indication of when we might end up in a room (where we will wait even longer for testing) is unjustifiable. This is NOT a one-time issue and they absolutely have the budget to figure out a solution.

2 stars ONLY because most of the staff I encountered were nice. To the hospital’s board, do something better to retain or gain your staff. I know an ER visit is long, however when you’re sitting in the waiting room for 2 hours and haven’t even been triaged yet, while others who arrived well after you have already been triaged by a nurse and back out to wait for an actual room, that’s an issue. Especially when it’s for a baby who won’t keep anything down. I took my son and left. I’ll be calling his doctors office when they open in 6 hours now.

The absolute worst children hospital. They are in no kind of hurry to assist or help your child. My daughter has had a bad head injury and here we are still waiting in the waiting room 3 hours later... the worst .. to the employees that work here... start thinking about the children instead of sitting around on your social media or sitting around just gossiping... absolute the worst.
